DOI:https://doi.org/10.17188/1263521· OSTI ID:1263521

MgCO3 is Calcite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form corner-sharing MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 59°. All Mg–O bond lengths are 2.13 Å. C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All C–O bond lengths are 1.30 Å. O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and one C4+ atom.
